The C-NLOPB will extend its deadline for public review of the draft Western Newfoundland and Labrador Strategic Environmental Assessment Update Report by allowing an additional eight weeks, to Friday, September 27, 2013.
The draft report was released on June 21, following its translation into French. The initial six week period allotted for public review takes place during summer; therefore the C-NLOPB acknowledges the value of an extension.
A key objective of the public review is to provide those who commented during the public consultations with an opportunity to assess how their comments are reflected in the draft report. Some may choose only to review the parts of the report that are relevant to their earlier comments, although the C-NLOPB will welcome all feedback on the draft report.
The full draft of the SEA Update Report and its executive summary are available on the C-NLOPB website.
